The video has also appeared on various other social media platforms. In the comments, internet users have commended the anchor for her professionalism. One user praised her professionalism, noting that she showed no reaction or fear, which many others wouldn't have been able to do. This incident will likely be memorable for her.

Another commenter expressed sympathy, noting the ups and downs of the profession. A third user suggested that the anchor deserved a raise for her unflappable response. A fourth observer remarked on her remarkable professionalism, impressed by her apparent lack of reaction.

In the comments section, some users also mentioned that the object that looked like a black fly was actually just an eyelash that fell into her mouth. One user noted that it appeared she was wearing individual strip lashes, such as those from Lashify, and one had detached and fallen off while blinking.

In another incident similar to the news anchor swallowing a fly, a heartwarming segment on pet adoption in Bolivia turned unexpectedly hilarious when a puppy decided to relieve itself live on air. The incident happened during a broadcast on Channel RTP, surprising both the news crew and viewers.

A video circulating online depicted the anchor petting an adorable puppy sitting on her desk. As she encouraged viewers to consider adopting homeless pets, the dog unexpectedly relieved itself right there on the desk. Momentarily flustered, the anchor looked away briefly before her co-anchor came to the rescue with paper towels. The incident became a source of amusement on the internet, with one user humorously commenting, "The dog doing its thing and marking its territory."
